Sony will soon fulfill its promise to make gameplay sharing easier on PlayStation 4

The new consoles make sharing video game experiences fairly easy. Today, Sony announced a planned update to make it even easier on the PlayStation 4.

The PS4 update, which has no release date yet, will include three useful features to improve content sharing on the console. Sony is adding a video editor “with a simple tool to personalize your video clips.” A press of the “share” button will save screenshots and videos to a USB drive plugged into the console. And finally, and most important, the update will enable PS4 players to turn off High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP). This will make it much easier to capture and share video with third-party devices, a popular method for serious gameplay broadcasters.
